We came across Old Joe's a number of years ago more by chance than anything else. The welcome, the food and and the homely comfort has caused us to return for a weekend getaway from Joburg as often as we can. Paul and Marian have mastered the balance between attentive and welcoming hosts and and providing the space so often...
